New Biggby coffee store opens in downtown Lansing's Stadium District

LANSING, MI – A new Biggby coffee shop will open its
doors Thursday, filling a vacant spot in the Stadium District development near
downtown.

The new coffee shop is expected to create 12 to 15 new
jobs, said Mindy Biladeau, executive director of Downtown Lansing, Inc. The
group represents businesses in the downtown area.

She said the group was "delighted" to have another Biggby
downtown.

"Coffee
is something that brings people together and is a conversation piece," she said
in an email. "Biggby does just that, it's a place for residents,
visitors, students, and employees to come together and feel a sense
of community and meet their neighbors."
